Sergey Shelukhin commented on HIVE-15989: ----------------------------------------- Is ORC file column decimal, double, or something else? You should use a matching type. So many 3-s won't fit into decimal(38,38), so I wonder if it's some other type. Also, to rule out the tools/JDBC/... enforcing some arbitrary limit, if you save query results via "insert overwrite directory", does it still happen? [~prasanth_j] is there some convenient way to dump a record/records from ORC file without going thru Hive. > Incorrect rounding in decimal data types > ---------------------------------------- > > Key: HIVE-15989 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HIVE-15989 > Project: Hive > Issue Type: Bug > Components: Database/Schema > Reporter: Nikesh > Priority: Critical > > I have a numeric field in a file in my data lake and created a hive external > table pointing to this field. The field value is > 0.3333333333333333333333333333333333333333 but when I fetched this record > using the query it display only 0.3333333333333333. I tried using DECIMAL and > DOUBLE data types but nothing worked.is this a bug or am I not using the > exact data type for this? > Thanks, > NIkesh -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.3.15#6346)
